I was browsing the Toronto Star and came across an article about the federal Conservative party, known as the Tories, are about to release political attack ads. The article talks about how the ads will target the Liberal leader Stéphane Dion and his ineffective leadership. The ads say that the previous Liberal government did nothing to reduce greenhouse emissions, in accordance with the Kyoto Agreement, and that the air quality got worse, which is contradictory to the statistics that the Environmental ministry has put out.
In my eyes this is really pathetic. The Conservatives obviously didn't really care about the environment when they came to power. They cut back on several environmental programs. With recent reports and discussion about global warming, the Canadian people have now placed the environemnt as their number one concern. The Conservatives now realize that they have made a big mistake and that the people dissatisifed with the government may put them out of power. So they have to resort to this attack.
